The Rookery: Honey Bee in Aloe

Extras:
Thick-legged flower beetle leaving bloom
Mint moth on drying petals

I met a friend at The Rookery on Streatham Common; I was torn between macros of the many thick-legged flower beetles (with males ambushing females in Convolvulus flowers), and the mint moths, so went with this honey bee instead...
I'm going away with my parents tomorrow, so am not sure whether I'll be blipping tomorrow, or back blipping in due course, but don't be surprised if I'm absent for some time!
